So is there a way to cap off the hydraulics to the rear suspension at the pump, so I can have working steering while I’m hunting down my rear sls leaks? There seems to be multiple leaks and possibly A brake fluid leak as well. Cars been sitting a while and I just picked it up and want to work on it when I have time and no power steering sucks moving it around!

No. Welcome to the world of driveway repairs. Its a complicated system and hopefully you understand the system for more that observing a leak. Lots of dogooder advice,but in the end and after a month or so of sitting, the car visits and experienced shop!

Yes, you should be able to loop it where you see the lines coming off the steering rack which some people do to convert to conventional suspension in the rear. I got rid of the sls in my wagon by using a sedan power steering pump and sedan lines going to and from the steering rack.
